    I stand,
    I watch,
    I look,
    But i can not see,

    I stand,
    I watch,
    I look,
    I open my eyes fully,

    I weep at the sights around me
    I weep for the innocent life of the unborn child i hope to some day have,
    With these tears still fresh i step boldly forward to make their world a better place.

    I like the repetition in the these two stanzas. Sets a certain tesion. Like begging for someone to listen.

    And this is the reason they must listen. It is saying to go forward bravely, even if it doesn't seem like the future will be promising.

    Really liked this poem. Excellent commentary on disillusionment. Thanks for sharing it.
